From a friend............. "long a go and in a different life I used to work at a place that made things like this...SWEL...Special Weapons and Electronics Labs...at Vint Hill Farms VA...thats when the ARMY made its own stuff...now days they just contract it out....(I didnt work on the vehicles...I was in the automation end of things but got to see some really neat stuff)........." [[Delted]] Chief, TSB Just what I need on I-285 Have you ever wondered what all those extra SUVs are in the Presidential or VIP motorcades? You know, the ones with blacked windows that no one gets in or out of. Well, wonder no more. They have a 6 barreled 7.62 mm mini gun. They fire over 4,000 rounds per. minute .... The wipers need to be run to remove spent casings when the weapon is firing. This video is from the company that makes this happen. The vehicle is also armor plated.

Lord, give me patience 'cuz if you give me strength I'll need bail money!! 'TrapperP' | ||

Dillon has been in the Gatling gun business for a number of years. Anyone remember his video "Firestorm in the Desert"? That video is probably 10 years old now, and still a real classic. Dillon aero has been making their revised 7.62mm GE mini-gun for many many moons, as well as some other variations thereof. Check out Dillon Aero. | |||

One of those vehicles recently made a guest appearance on Myth Busters and shredded some stuff. AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!

The President's SS motorcades have something very similar. http://www.cnet.com/8301-13639_1-9761803-42.html?tag=blg.orig | |||
